Aimz,

Jennifer has given great advice already.

I have had all 3 of my children in Amby hammocks and my fears over the dreaded transition to cot were huge!

But I kept everything else the same: same music, same little toy, same routine before bed etc.

On the day I transitioned each of them I made sure they were REALLY tired.....no midday nap, and an active day, in the hope that they would be so buggered that they would crash and not realise that they couldn't swing/bounce themselves!

Charlie was probably the hardest.....but it was winter, and I think he felt the lack of cosiness...so I got him snuggled up in a sleeping bag, and this fixed it. It took him a few days to settle into the cot, but both Olivia and Lexie took no time at all (ie they didn't make a fuss at all....)

GOOD LUCK!
